Kapitel 23

The music faded away, and Ru Feng seized the opportunity, saying, "Is your name derived from this? 'Asking about the mortal world, keep silent and turn back.'"

Mu Wenchen stood up, facing the wind, his clothes fluttering, his imposing figure towering a head above the wind.

Has anyone ever told you that you're noisy?

Ru Feng nodded honestly: "Yes, my master."

Mu Wenchen turned and went downstairs, with Ru Feng following beside him, chattering, "If you're always so silent, your facial muscles will become stiff, and even the most beautiful person won't look good then. But then again, when we're old, you'll have no wrinkles on your face, still like a jade sculpture, while I, who love to laugh, will definitely have a face full of wrinkles." Ru Feng sighed, shook her head, and automatically sat down as well.

This is a square table made of bamboo, and even the chairs they sit on are woven from bamboo, exuding a faint fragrance.

Ru Feng and Mu Wenchen sat facing each other in the courtyard.

After waiting for a while, Ru Feng saw the man in black bring out something, and his mouth immediately watered.

Stir-fried bok choy, with its bright green leaves, looks fresh and clean. It also includes bamboo shoots and tender white chicken... It's just a simple home-style stir-fry, but it's a feast for the eyes, nose, and palate, making your mouth water.

"Huh, why don't I have chopsticks?" Ru Feng blinked as she looked at Mu Wenchen.

The man in black waited for a while before turning around and going back into the house to get a pair of bowls and chopsticks, which he then handed to Rufeng.

Ru Feng smiled gratefully at him: "Thank you, Brother in Black."

The man in black seemed to freeze for a moment before sitting down. He first served Mu Wenchen a bowl of rice before serving himself. Ru Feng didn't intend for anyone to do it for her, so she diligently served herself.

Seeing Mu Wenchen begin to pick up his chopsticks, Ru Feng quickly followed suit. Although Ru Feng's eating manners were not exactly vulgar, they were certainly not elegant either, because her eating manners revealed a kind of "ruthlessness".

In the end, Mu Wenchen and the man in black both stopped and watched Ru Feng "perform" alone.

After finishing everything in one go, Ru Feng patted his stomach and looked gratefully at the man in black: "Brother in black, the food you made is really delicious! Were you a chef before? My God, God knows how long it has been since I, Yu Chi Ru Feng, have eaten such delicious food. Don't worry, I will repay you in the future."

The man in black's lips twitched slightly, but he didn't say anything. He simply cleaned up the mess of cups and plates on the table in silence.

Ru Feng stared at the man in black for a long time before turning to look at Mu Wenchen.

Mu Wenchen stared at her for a while before taking out a handkerchief and handing it to her, his eyes fixed on Ru Feng's lips.

As if understanding, Rufeng took the handkerchief and wiped it on his lips. Then, without any hesitation, he stuffed the handkerchief into his pocket, praising, "It smells as sweet as orchids, just like its owner."

Mu Wenchen's jade-like face froze for a moment, then blushed slightly, though it was unclear why.

"Headmaster, I have a favor to ask you. Could you please replace the cook at the academy? You don't know how utterly inedible the cook's food is. If we had plenty of other food, I wouldn't bother with him. Look, the reason I'm so thin and short is all because of that food. You know I'm still growing, and if I don't get enough nutrition now, I'll stunt my development later."

Mu Wenchen stared at her for a long time before finally saying, "Go back."

Ru Feng glanced at the sky and nodded, "Then I'll go back now, and I'll come see you again tomorrow."

He walked away humming a tune that was completely off-key.

In the days that followed, Ru Feng spent his days preparing for the sports meet and his evenings coming over for dinner. Most of the time, Ru Feng would just talk to himself. Ever since Ru Feng once brought beggar's chicken to offer to Brother Mu Tong in black, Mu Tong wasn't as cold to Ru Feng, but he still didn't pay much attention to him.

Ru Feng shook his head, saying, "Like master, like servant."

Yu Xuan and Yu Jue were both surprised to learn about Ru Feng's situation. They exchanged a glance and then stared intently at Ru Feng.

"What do you want to do?" Ru Feng Xiaosheng asked fearfully, clutching his clothes tightly.

Yu Xuan knocked on his shoulder with one hand: "What are you thinking about?"

"By the way, what do you think of the headmaster?" Yu Jue asked casually.

Ru Feng thought for a while before answering: "If Rong Yiying is cynical and indifferent, then Mu Wenchen is indifferent from birth. In his heart, it seems that he doesn't care about many things and many things don't elicit his reaction."

Yujue and Yuxuan remained silent for a long time.

Chapter 046 Illness

Thanks to Ru Feng's efforts, the head chef of Fengxian Academy left, and a woman in her forties came in. Although she was not particularly attractive, her cooking skills were much better than the previous head chef's; at least the food was edible.

This was the first practical thing Ru Feng did for everyone after becoming the head chef. You see, the previous head chef had been tyrannical for several years and had never stepped down. It was said that he had someone backing him up. Unexpectedly, Ru Feng succeeded as soon as he took action, so everyone was very grateful to Ru Feng.

Only Ru Feng knew that Mu Wenchen couldn't stand his daily "greetings" at every meal, so he used his power to directly fire the chef, probably offending some important person in the process.

So Ru Feng hasn't bothered Mu Wenchen in the last few days, because even if she wanted to, she couldn't.

Ten days before the sports meet, Ru Feng fell ill.

Outside, the sun was shining brightly, but inside Ru Feng's house, a low-pressure atmosphere prevailed, with everyone circling around him.

"Ooh...it hurts so much..." Ru Feng cried out softly, wrapped in a quilt, covered in sweat, his face ashen, his brows furrowed.

"Ru Feng, what's wrong with you?" Yu Jue asked anxiously, wiping Ru Feng's sweat with one hand, but the sweat kept pouring out.

"Yuxuan, what exactly is going on?" Yun Tianze asked, frowning.

Although Yu Xuan also looked anxious, he still explained helplessly, "I don't know either. Ru Feng didn't go to class this morning. I thought he was busy with his sports meet. I didn't expect to find him like this when I came back after lunch."

"Call a doctor quickly," Yu Jue finally couldn't help but repeat himself.

"No, no! If you dare call a doctor, I'll never talk to you again! I mean it!" Ru Feng, who had been gasping for breath, shouted immediately upon hearing this.

“But the way you are now…” Yu Jue almost shouted.

The crowd couldn't understand why Ru Feng didn't want to see a doctor. What was he trying to do if he was sick and didn't see a doctor?

"No, no..." Ru Feng insisted, even though she was in excruciating pain.

Yu Xuan couldn't bear it and quickly comforted her, "Alright, alright, we won't call you. What's wrong with you right now?"

It was so hot, yet Ru Feng insisted on wrapping himself in a quilt and wouldn't let anyone take it off, but sweat kept pouring out. Ru Feng had always been a healthy baby, and they had never seen him so weak before, so everyone was very worried.

Ru Feng felt as if a stick was pounding into her stomach; her lower abdomen felt heavy and swollen, causing her to gasp for breath in pain.

"...My stomach hurts..." Ru Feng finally managed to say, "I'll be fine in a bit, it's...it's an old ailment, I'll just have to bear with it."

"You can't even speak, how can you still bear it?" Yu Jue paced anxiously, but he was powerless to help. He had never studied medicine, and Ru Feng refused to see a doctor. How could they be at ease with him in this state?

Ru Feng had no words to express her suffering. It was just menstrual cramps, a common female ailment. Ever since her first period at the age of fifteen, she had been suffering from menstrual cramps. However, back then, the situation wasn't so severe, and she could just endure it on the first day, so Ru Feng didn't pay much attention to it.

But this time, because she had been too busy this month and hadn't paid attention to rest, the pain was particularly bad. The pain was so intense that even she, who was usually able to endure pain, couldn't bear it. The main problem was that she found herself feeling dizzy and lightheaded, which seemed to be heatstroke. So she had to fall asleep. It was hot, and she had to cover herself with a quilt, for fear that the "smell" on her body would be noticed by others.

"Oh right, I want to drink brown sugar water..." Ru Feng thought for a moment and finally remembered this.

Upon hearing this, Yu Xuan hurriedly ran to the kitchen. Yu Jue wiped her sweat and said tenderly, "You haven't eaten yet today. Would you like some?"

Ru Feng shook her head. She felt her concentration waning, her stomach was aching terribly, and the hot, damp bed made her feel even more uncomfortable. And with a grown man in the room, she could vaguely smell the unique "scent" emanating from her body. Afraid of being smelled by others, she shrank back even further.

Soon, the brown sugar water arrived. Ru Feng turned her head to drink it, but as soon as she took a sip, she couldn't help but frown because the water was cold. Yu Xuan was still saying, "I saw you were sweating, so I specially chilled the water. Are you feeling any better now?"

Ru Feng burst into tears. The pain was unbearable. She wished everyone in front of her would disappear, but how could they allow that? With her stomach in excruciating pain, she missed her family in the modern world, the people in the Yuchi family, and her past life. In short, a whole bunch of random thoughts came to mind. The pressure overwhelmed her, and the more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. She couldn't help but cry softly.

Her crying only made the three of them more panicked.

"Ru Feng, Ru Feng, what should we do? Shall we call a doctor?" Yu Jue whispered.

"Sigh, it's a pity my medicine doesn't work on Ru Feng at all." Yun Tianze paced back and forth in the room, looking troubled.

Yu Xuan kept looking at Ru Feng, occasionally glancing at the door, struggling internally about whether to go against Ru Feng's wishes and invite the doctor over, since the doctor lived in the academy, which would be very convenient.

"No...you...if anyone dares to call...the doctor, I'll...I'll die right here! Waaah...I hate doctors!...Waaah...and...you're not allowed to tell...tell anyone about my crying today!" Ru Feng cried out hurriedly, beads of sweat constantly pouring out from her forehead, soaking her black hair and pillow. Her small face was frighteningly pale, and even her usually tender red lips had turned white.

"Ru Feng, Ru Feng... then what should we do?" Yu Xuan grabbed Ru Feng's cold hand, hardening his heart, "I'll still go and fetch a doctor! Even if you blame me afterwards!"

Ru Feng was already irritable, and upon hearing this, she shook off his hand and said fiercely, "You're not allowed to go!"

Yu Xuan and Yun Tianze also couldn't bear to see Ru Feng looking so weak, like a kitten, so they hardened their hearts and said, "Go ahead, we'll bear it together."

Seeing that Yu Xuan was really about to go out, Ru Feng hurriedly said in a moment of panic, "Alright, but you have to call my doctor. I don't trust anyone else!"

There will be another chapter tonight, which will be uploaded before midnight. If you can't wait, please check back tomorrow.

By the way, don't think this is too exaggerated; one of my classmates once fainted from the pain.

Chapter 47 Discovery

"Ru Feng, who do you want to call?" Everyone was overjoyed, as long as Ru Feng was willing to treat the patient.

"Go to Yuelai Inn and find my junior sister Zuiyue. She will heal me." After saying this with great effort, Rufeng collapsed. She felt extremely uncomfortable all over. Symptoms such as chest tightness and irritability, headache and dizziness, fatigue and weakness, pale complexion, cold limbs, cold sweat, exhaustion and fainting appeared. Now she really wished she could die.

However, it seems she's really going to find out this time...

Yu Xuan left like a gust of wind.

Ru Feng said softly, "I want to drink hot water..."

Yun Tianze hurriedly said, "Then I'll go!"

Only Yujue and Rufeng remained in the room. Rufeng was almost unconscious, only trying to stay awake.

Yu Jue held Ru Feng's hand tightly, his heart filled with complex emotions. Seeing Ru Feng's weak state, he felt a pang of heartache he had never experienced before. He truly wished he could take the illness upon himself rather than let Ru Feng suffer like this!

Yu Jue felt a pang of panic. Could this be the "homosexuality" that Ru Feng had mentioned that day? The thought sent a shiver down Yu Jue's spine. Homosexuality? This term represented taboo, represented abnormality…

"Forget it," Yu Jue consoled himself, "maybe it's just my 'brotherly' feelings for Ru Feng."

After a moment of lost thought, Yun Tianze finally came in, carrying a bowl of hot water: "Here, this is hot water from the kitchen."

Looking at the fine sweat on Yun Tianze's forehead and his slight panting, Yu Jue said guiltily, "I should have gone; you're not feeling well."

"It's alright, I'm happy to do something for Rufeng." Yun Tianze smiled, found a stool to sit down, and stared intently at the door, waiting for Yuxuan to return.
